Annual Chocolate Fest Coming to Ballston Spa

BALLSTON SPA — The Ballston Spa Business & Professional Association has announced the 8th Ballston Spa Chocolate Fest will take place on Friday, February 3 from 4-8 p.m. throughout the village of Ballston Spa. 

Area restaurants, bakeries, and chefs are all welcome to compete to showcase their talents and tastes by preparing small, sample-sized chocolate offerings in 3 categories: Dessert (Sweet), Savory, and Chocolate Beverage. These treats will be judged by Chocolate-fest goers. 

While savoring chocolate treats, visitors will enjoy a variety of First Friday activities going on throughout the Village, including live music, artist demonstrations and special promotions just in time for Valentine’s Day. A complete list of events can be found at Ballston.org. 

In 2020, over 21 “Sweet Spots” were featured throughout the downtown area, and counted more than 1,500 visitors to the Village for this annual event.
